Systems Biology Markup Language

Systems Biology Markup Language (SBML) is a standardized digital format used to represent and share detailed models of biological systems, such as the interactions within cells or metabolic pathways. It enables scientists to encode complex data—including genes, proteins, and reactions—in a structured way that software tools can interpret and simulate. This promotes collaboration, reproducibility, and analysis across different research groups worldwide. Essentially, SBML acts as a common language for computational biology, streamlining the modeling and understanding of intricate biological processes at a systems level.
